Pomme (Apple)
Brouwerij Lindemans

 

 

 

Copenhagen 2/2 2020. 35,5 cl bottle from Meny, Borups Allé, Frb. F. Very green label with a whole and a halved apple.

Pours slightly unclear golden yellow with a big white head. Settles as 1 cm thick layer of frothy foam. Crawling up the sides of the glass. Substantial lacing.

Aroma is intense, sweetly fruity with a sharp tart sourness peeking through. Sweet apples, sweet decay, sugar. Light sour citrus and vinegar.

Light carbonation. Thin, oily, lightly tingling texture.

Flavor has a strong sweetness followed by a moderately strong, tart sourness. Lingers for a bit.

Belgian apple juice. Well made but the apple sweetness is very dominant at the expense of the tart lambic.

Bottle 0.25L.
Slightly hazy golden body with an average, frothy, white head, mostly diminishing with some nice lacing.
Moderate yeasty (sour) aroma with evident notes of fruits (apple addiction is quite distinctive).
Moderate sweet and light acidic flavour; average-lasting sweet finish.
Medium body with oily texture; soft carbonation.

250ml bottle into a Lindemans flute.
L: SRM 3 pours very light straw light golden yellow with a very thin white head that instantly recedes to edge foam, lush steady carbo, spots of loose lacing.
S: Green apple, a distant grain note.
T: Sweet sour and very tart moderately intense caramelized green apple, a hint of yeast, a touch of grains.
F: Lively, brisk, medium-light bodied feel with a tall center and a medium-long drying finish. It gets smooth with warming.
O: Green apple taste dominates this beer. Very brisk, enlivening with an awakening feel. Rather tart & sour and very easy to drink. It is redolent of apple cider but not as crisp. It is very good in its style.

This pours a golden color with a small head that dissipates quickly. The aroma is mild apple, and the taste is more pronounced, more like apple cider. very good.

Pale golden in color, medium-sized frothy head. Apples and herbs in aroma. Taste begins with sweetness , but sourness dominates in finish. Pleasant, refreshing lambic.

I got a mixed 4pck of bottles of this beer from my son's former teammate whom stopped by for Thanksgiving. It poured a clear golden with very thin white ring head that is not leaving any lace. The scent and taste was closely related to sour green apple jolly rancher. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a good beer.

Excellent balance between sweet and sour

Another Lindemans from the variety pack, well-executed. Pale-straw bordering on pale gold with an ample head of white that fizzles away quickly, lots of carbonation apparent in the glass. Strong apple and apple skins, notes of musty hay and a yeasty presence, sweet with appropriate tartness and acidic notes, goes down easy and finishes sweet. Its what you would expect, practically cider.

been wanting to try this one for awhile now, a little less commonly seen around, but now part of the mixed four pack, a cool idea. this is one of the best of these i think, its more complex, less sweet, and super funky as these go, not a fruit cordial, which is how some of them hit. the pour is blonde and fizzy, near clear and with a light shine. the nose is wonderful, bretty woody dusty musty funky base beer, old wheat, its still not super funky lambic, but its a little more lambic forward than are many of the other variants, there is more balance between the beer and the fruit here. tart green apple and lightly sweet hard cider notes to it, white wine and champagne, lightly herbal, its really appealing, a little bit mouthwatering, mature in a way the others really arent. some more funk to the flavor too, both early and late, and the apple is just so well integrated, bringing a little contrasting acidity and playing up the musty weirdness well, a bit of oxidation kind of flatters the ferment, some middle palate apple juicy sweetness, and enough grain to keep it beery even though it has bigtime cider character, farmy and rustic overall but also nicely refined, love the high carbonation with these flavors, even some oak on the back end. pleasant and super drinkable with this low abv and lighter sugar load. great showcase of the apples, i really dig this one, underrated too.

 

 

Like the others, a bit of artificial "Jolly Rancher" green apple flavor over some subtle complex wild yeast flavors. So absurdly drinkable. Perfectly balanced - not overly sweet, bitter, tart, malty, hoppy. Fruity in a "green" way - not syrupy. Not super complex, not a great representation of a lambic, but more complex than your average cider. Perhaps this is just telling me I need to try more ciders, haha.

 

 

Not tart enough.
